Lopez Featured Author | Daniel J. Volpe pg. 208 - Oh, the Horror Featured Novel | Talia pg. 210 - Talia Except pg. 212 - Credits & Copyright 3 The Collector | Miriam H. Harrison George was greatly distressed by his uncle’s passing. Not from any affection for the man—Uncle Henry had, in truth, been quite insufferable—but because George was the only relation well enough to settle the last of the miserable man’s affairs. Uncle Henry had never been wealthy, but he had nonetheless filled his simple country home with collections of the most lackluster variety: a cellar of dusty wine bottles, each with one last sip stoppered inside, long since rancid; wardrobes of what could have once been a gentleman’s finery, now patched and repatched beyond utility; dozens of hats, each stained and frayed in its own fashion. In life Uncle Henry had been heard to remark on several occasions that he had been cursed with a love of the finer things while the hateful Lord above made all too certain that he could not afford them. So instead he surrounded himself with the next best thing: objects that had once been proud and which—in great enough numbers—could compound into something still fine, still grand. Perhaps this lapse in judgment could be more readily forgiven if George had not been the one to find himself alone standing in the midst of this cenotaph to discontent. Alone, save for the dubious assistance of Mr. John Curtis, a gentleman much more generous in commentary than assistance. “Fascinating!” Mr. Curtis said yet again, this time as he watched George open a trunk of ladies shoes, most broken, many probably lacking a mate. George snorted in response, letting the lid fall shut. “Hardly. One more thing to be hauled away.” He heaved the trunk aside, ready to move on to the next. But Mr. Curtis opened the trunk once more, considering the contents in silence while George opened another, this one filled with broken tableware. “Had your uncle a wife?” George almost laughed at the question. “No, certainly not. Though I daresay a touch of domesticity would have gone a long way towards balancing the man.” He moved this trunk aside and began to struggle with the next, whose latch had rusted shut.

  • BARTMIŃSKI, Jerzy: Úhel Pohledu, Perspektiva, Jazykový Obraz Světa
    BARTMIŃSKI, Jerzy: Úhel pohledu, perspektiva, jazykový obraz světa. Martin Beneš Ústav pro jazyk český AV ČR, Praha [email protected] BARTMIŃSKI, Jerzy (1990): Punkt widzenia, perspektywa, językowy obraz świata. In: Jerzy Bartmiński (ed.), Językowy obraz świata. Lublin: Wydawnictwo UMCS, s. 109–127. BARTMIŃSKI, Jerzy (2009): Punkt widzenia, perspektywa, językowy obraz świata. In: Jerzy Bartmiński, Językowe podstawy obrazu świata. Lublin: Wydawnictwo UMCS, s. 76–88. Teorie jazykového obrazu světa, která je důležitou součástí výzkumného programu etnolingvistiky, je rozšířena ve dvou odlišných variantách, které lze zjednodušeně označit jako varianty „subjektivní“ a „objektivní“. Tyto varianty lze následně usouvztažnit s pojmy vidění světa (anglicky view of the world) a obraz světa (německy das sprachliche Weltbild). Vidění, tj. jistý pohled na svět, je vždy viděním někoho, implikuje dívání se, a tím i vnímající subjekt. Na druhou stranu obraz, i když je také výsledkem vnímání světa určitou osobou, subjekt sám o sobě tak silně neimplikuje; těžiště je v jeho rámci přesunuto na objekt, tedy na to, co je zahrnuto přímo v samotném jazyku. To však neznamená, že bychom v případě konkrétních subjektů mohli hovořit jen o jejich vidění světa, můžeme naopak – sice poněkud zprostředkovaně – hovořit i o jejich obrazu světa, tj. např. o obrazu světa dětí, „prostých“ lidí, úředníků nebo Evropanů. Můžeme dokonce klasifikovat jazykové obrazy světa podle toho, kdo jsou jejich tvůrci a nositelé, jak to navrhuje V. I. Postovalovová.1 Oba pojmy z titulu tohoto článku – úhel pohledu i perspektiva – se tedy vztahují jak k „vidění světa“, tak i k „obrazu světa“. Rekonstrukcí jazykového obrazu světa subjektů určitého kulturního společenství, které bývá označováno tradičním spojením „polský lid“, by měl být v Lublinu připravovaný Słownik ludowych stereotypów językowych [Slovník lidových jazykových stereotypů] (SLSJ, 1980).

  • Torbay Rmcz, Devon Physical Features Surveyed
    Torbay rMCZ, Devon Seasearch Site Surveys 2012 This report summarises the results of surveys carried out in the recommended MCZ by Seasearch divers during 2012. The aim of the surveys was to add detail of the habitats and species found within the area to support the designation process. Particular attention was paid to the Habitat and Species FOCI identified in the Ecological Guidance on the designation of MCZs. Surveys were carried out at a number of sites in all parts of the rMCZ. 1 2 4 3 5 Sites Surveyed 1 Babbacombe 2 Hope’s Cove CW 3 Orestone 6 7 4 Thatcher Gut 8 9 5 Fairy Cove 6 Elberry Cove 7 Fishcombe Cove 8 Brixham Breakwater 10 11 9 Shoalstone Beach 12 10 Cod Rock 11 Sharpham Bay 12 St Mary’s Bay Physical features Surveyed The main features of the area surveyed by Seasearch in 2012 were eelgrass beds (Hopes Cove (2), Thatcher Gut (4), Elberry Cove (6), Fishcombe Cove (7) and Brixham Breakwater Beach (8)), infralittoral rocky reefs (Babbacombe (1), Fairy Cove (5), Shoalstone (9) and St Marys Bay (12)), circalittoral rocky reefs (Orestone (3), Cod Rock (10) and Sharpham Bay (11)) and a variety of sediments from gravel to sandy mud (most sites). All of the sites are already within the Torbay SAC, but a number had not been previously surveyed and the records of eelgrass beds at Hope’s Cove and Thatcher Gut are new, is arCWe the circalittoral rocky reef in Sharpham Bay. CW Features of the Marine Life and Habitats Eeelgrass Beds (Sites 2,4,6,7,8) Eelgrass, Zostera marina, is one of the very few flowering plants underwater and, unlike seaweeds, has a system of roots which can help to bind soft sediments and create a complex habitat in what would otherwise be a relatively un-diverse environment.

  • Between Species: Choreographing Human And
    BETWEEN SPECIES: CHOREOGRAPHING HUMAN AND NONHUMAN BODIES JONATHAN OSBORN A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN DANCE STUDIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO MAY, 2019 ã Jonathan Osborn, 2019 Abstract BETWEEN SPECIES: CHOREOGRAPHING HUMAN AND NONHUMAN BODIES is a dissertation project informed by practice-led and practice-based modes of engagement, which approaches the space of the zoo as a multispecies, choreographic, affective assemblage. Drawing from critical scholarship in dance literature, zoo studies, human-animal studies, posthuman philosophy, and experiential/somatic field studies, this work utilizes choreographic engagement, with the topography and inhabitants of the Toronto Zoo and the Berlin Zoologischer Garten, to investigate the potential for kinaesthetic exchanges between human and nonhuman subjects. In tracing these exchanges, BETWEEN SPECIES documents the creation of the zoomorphic choreographic works ARK and ARCHE and creatively mediates on: more-than-human choreography; the curatorial paradigms, embodied practices, and forms of zoological gardens; the staging of human and nonhuman bodies and bodies of knowledge; the resonances and dissonances between ethological research and dance ethnography; and, the anthropocentric constitution of the field of dance studies. ii Dedication Dedicated to the glowing memory of my nana, Patricia Maltby, who, through her relentless love and fervent belief in my potential, elegantly willed me into another phase of life, while she passed, with dignity and calm, into another realm of existence. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my phenomenal supervisor Dr. Barbara Sellers-Young and my amazing committee members Dr.
